    - Printing is bigger than Print Layout/Preview I thought that Print Layout or Print Preview (they look identical) would indicate how it prints. I am using an old dot matrix printer (Panasonic 24 pin narrow carriage KX-P1180). Is this normal? Is it the printer or my printing settings in Word 2000?

    - Further help, please Using Office 2003 SBE, I'm setting up a Company fax. At the moment it's a .doc (not template) and I'm working on setting up the 1st page (ideally without using VBA so that I might avoid Certificate issues when deploying the fax). I've set up the FirstPageheader which contains Company address and logo. Q1: How to protect/lock for editing this header? Below the header will be the body of the Fax, so this must be editable by the user. however it will also contain this type of entry: Page: " " of " " where [Page] & [of] are preloaded, but the " " represent user-editable areas Q2: How do I do this without code? Any help much appreciated. Regards. Tag: Format Sentence case will not work Tag: 76186

    - Normal.dot "forgets" my customizations! I really hope someone can help me here! I want to customize my word environment. This is what I do: 1) Tools > Customize > Commands 2) Drag required items to my icon bar (example "close" and "envelopes and mailings") 3) Click "Close" (having checked that "Save In" says "Normal" Everything is fine until I close and restart word when it is back to where I started. I have done this over and over again but it never works! It used to work fine in Word XP and earlier versions. I even tried opening normal.dot, repeating the same procedure and saving but it is still the same. Why is my copy of Word "forgetting" my customizations? Can anyone help???

    - Create Master Fax like this? Say I need a Master Fax template, where the entire fax will (for now) occupy one A4 portrait page, and where the 1st quarter of the page will be filled with "who it's from, who it's to, Company logo and address etc" and where the last quarter of the page will be filled with details concerning such things as Internal and External distribution (who gets a copy, etc). In principle, can I open the template and (assuming there's a way to also lock/protect the top and bottom quarters) be able to enter text into the middle section of the page AND be able to freely format sections of that text (ie font, font size, bold, underline etc)?

Yet when I open the file it is always in the "final showing markup" mode with all the editing visible which I don't want. The same thing happens if I try saving that way & reopening.

    - Word 2003 updgrade issues I just upgraded from Office 2000 to Office 2003. I love some of the new features, but others are very aggravating. If you can help, please reply. 1. When viewing text, letters are displayed in a color that seems to be one shade grayer than black, or maybe the lines of the characters are thinner than what was used with Office 2000. In any case, I am having a difficult time reading them compared to Word 2000. Is there any way to fix this? 2. When editing a large document, every character I type makes the entire document bounce up and down about an inch as WORD tries to adjust paragraph size and placements. It is incredibly annoying to do anything, even something simple like correct a spelling error. Is there any way to stop this? 3. When starting any document or exiting any document, I get pop-up error messages telling me macros are disabled. I re-enabled macros just to get rid of these annoying messages, but they still are popping up every time. How can I make them go away?

    - How to check a check box? I am trying to construct a Word doc which can be emailed, filled in and returned (Would that be an online form?) with some text boxes and some yes/no check boxes. The text boxes work fine and while I have no trouble adding the check boxes to the form but I can't figure out how User is supposed to select them. The only way I can place an X in one is to double click it in order to open the "Check Box Form Field Options" dialog box and then select the appropriate Default value.

    - mouse missing!...the arrow disappears! On any 2003 word document, whenever i type, the mouse arrow disappears. I already turned off this mouse function in the control panel (under mouse, you can uncheck the option that makes the mouse disappear when you type). But the mouse arrow disappears anyhow and I cannot locate it unless I move the mouse out of the document...then it reappears again.

    - Search for CAPITALIZED words? Howdy all, Word 2002, XP, question on searching for capitalized text in a document. What I need to do is a Find and Replace on all capitalized text within a document, and switch it to Bold, leaving it capitalized. There is nothing in common with any of the words that are in caps, so there are no character strings to search on; it'll have to be a style or font setting or?? I can find nothing that can locate non-specific text that is all capitals. In other words, each capitalized word is different; there is no relationship between any of the words, so there is no pattern of text to search on; only the fact that it's body text and it's capitalized. e.g., I might need to find /JUST, /THIS, /HOW, /WHY, ALWAYS, and so on, and change them to Bolded characters. Usually, not always, the capitalized word will be the first word of a sentence, but the length of the word is variable. I've tried a lot of things including wild cards and capitalized, but to no avail. I might be missing something silly, but if that's so, I sure can't figure it out! Any ideas would be most appreciated. Please make me slap my forehead and go D'uh! <g> because the answer is actually obvious? TIA, Pop -- Let someone else do it I'm retired!

    - Suggestions for speeding up Word 2K's performance I doubled my RAM to no avail. The program still has the aggravating habit of 'hanging' on a keystroke or command, not showing what the last action was until I move the cursor or create another keystroke. Am I clear? I presumed it was too many programs running, too little RAM or something else that was clogging up my memory. I've tried shutting down everyting but the document I'm working on, and still have the problem. I've cleaned up all the adware, spyware, etc., so that's not the problem. I'm wondering if it's just the nature of the beast. Is there a way to shut off part of Word to get it to run smoother? Would I be well served buying a newer edition of Word? (and if so, do I really have to buy all of Office or just a newer Word version?) Thanks.... Tag: Format Sentence case will not work Tag: 76068

    - Removing duplicate macro code I had three different normal.dot files, each with about 25-30 macros. Many were duplicates. I merged the macro code manually and deleted two of the normal.dot files so that I would have one master file with ALL of the macros. I assumed there would be some sort of cleanup mechanism that would allow me to quickly and easily remove the duplicate macros, or, that they would appear in the Tools>Macro>Macros list so I could just use Delete to get rid of them. However, the duplicate macros only appear in the list once. This is a serious problem because everytime I want to execute ANY macro, I get errors about all the duplicates. It says that the name is ambiguous. If I delete two of the three sections of code for the duplicate it was complaining about and try to run a macro again, it moves to the next duplicate in the list and complains about the ambiguous name. I guess it compiles the whole sheet at runtime. Is there some way in the MS Visual Basic Editor (invoked by Word, et al.) to remove the duplicates? Is there a way to compile the macro sheet and check for errors? Tag: Format Sentence case will not work Tag: 76063
